FoodBoss accepts 10th Schmitz Cargobull trailer

New South Wales-based refrigerated transport company, FoodBoss Transport, has taken delivery of a new Schmitz Cargobull refrigerated trailer.

The trailer is the 10th of its kind in the fleet, and will travel around NSW delivering frozen and chilled foodstuffs to its clients.

FoodBoss Transport Managing Director, Ian Gibson, told Trailer that the quality of Schmitz Cargobull’s products and its exceptional lead times led to the new addition.

“We ordered the first one around five years ago and we were pretty happy with their delivery times which is why we’ve thrown our business their way,” he said.

The new trailer features Schmitz Cargobull’s double loading system with loading bars capable of sliding to the roof, which Gibson said has been very useful as it prevents operators from physically handling them underneath the trailer.

“The safety factor with the double loading bars is a big plus,” he said.

“They all slide to the roof, and when we need them we can easily bring them down.”

Gibson said he has seen Schmitz Cargobull’s refrigerated trailers capable of holding their temperatures extremely well over the years which also sealed the deal for him.

“I’m very happy with them,” he said. “Their thermal qualities are as good if not better than anything else on the market. And the team at Schmitz Cargobull have been great to work with.”

In other news, applications will soon close for critical project funding through the National Heavy Vehicle Regulator’s (NHVR) Heavy Vehicle Safety Initiative (HVSI) program.

Meanwhile, JD Refrigerated Transport, a cold chain specialist based in southeast Queensland, has taken delivery of six brand-new Schmitz Cargobull 24-pallet refrigerated trailers.
